One of the major reasons your shampoo is causing your hair to lose some moisture is sulfate. Sulfate-free shampoo is a phrase that is associated with keeping your color-treated hair vibrant and bright; but if sulfate can strip hair color, think of what it can do to your scalp!

Sulfates can strip the natural oils from your scalp and hair, and can also irritate your scalp (think itching, dryness, redness). As those with curls know, keeping your curls moisturized leads to less frizz and more bounce. That being said, try to steer clear of shampoos with sulfate to make sure your curls are quenched. Here are some sulfate-free shampoos that will keep your hair soft, silky, and frizz free!
